Lese-Probe zu „Rhett & Link's Book of Mythicality “
A Mythical WelcomeYOU DID IT! You have officially made at least one good decision today. By opening this book you are opening yourself up to the very real possibility of increased Mythicality in your life. Why, exactly, you decided to open this book is not important. Maybe you heard that this book contains a skyscraper-shaped board game that builds character (true), a visual guide to slow dancing poses (true), apocalyptic-themed party ideas (true), and actual sheet music and lyrics for the song we want you to sing and hopefully play on the organ at our funeral (also true). Or maybe you opened this book because you wanted to see pictures from the time Link broke his pelvis (hilarious unless you were Link), or read about the time Rhett was confronted by a tattooed man while wearing a child s shirt (it didn t turn out well). Or perhaps you heard that one chapter of this book was written by our wives (a very risky decision) and another entire chapter was written from the future (the United States Department of Time Travel and Extraterrestrial Affairs will not permit us to confirm nor deny the validity of said chapter from the future). Regardless of your reasons, all that matters now is that, by opening this book, you have just merged onto the highway to Mythicality. It would probably be helpful to tell you what Mythicality is (if you don t happen to know already). Here s a technical-sounding definition:
Myth i cal i ty (mi-thi- ka-l -t ) noun
1. the quality or state of being that embodies a synergistic coalescence of curiosity, creativity, and tomfoolery (sometimes referred to as curiotomfoolivity), ideally experienced in the context of friendship and intended to bring goodwill to the universe. Origin: 2009; RhettandLinkish.
You may think you can t go around adding -ity to any word you want and then giving it your own meaning. But in the age of the Internet, you can especially when there isn t already a definition that communicates

exactly what you re trying to say. Mythicality is the word we ve come up with that captures what s been at the heart of our friendship from the very beginning. We ll unpack it in layman s terms in a moment, but first, some background might be helpful.
We met in 1984 on the first day of first grade at Buies Creek Elementary School in Buies Creek, North Carolina, when our teacher, Ms. Locklear, held us both in from recess for writing profanity on our desks ( hell and dam if you re wondering spelling wasn t Link s strongest subject). She then sentenced us to coloring pictures of mythical beasts. We ve been best friends ever since. Over twenty years later, when YouTube was invented, we began uploading videos of questionable quality like Cutting Strangers Nosehairs at the Mall and The Unibrow Song. These videos are still online, although we strongly advise against watching them if you have an active cringe reflex. Surprisingly and thankfully enough people responded positively to these videos to encourage us to make more.
In 2009, we began to get a sense that there should be a name for this group of individuals who had collectively determined that we were more funny than obnoxious. So, we took the easy way out and asked them to name themselves. After members of the RhettandLinKommunity (an online fan site) threw around a number of suggestions including Unicornholers and Rinkles, we all eventually settled on Mythical Beasts.
Since then, we ve gotten a little carried away with incorporating the term Mythical into our lives. In 2012, when we decided to launch a daily morning talk show, we naturally named it Good Myth
